Tips For Using Squidtop

Tuesday, August 26th, 2008

As well as posting blog entries to your Squidtop blog, did you know that you can create pages in Wordpress as well?

I already had an About page, but today I added several more pages with links to Surveys where you can sign up to earn money by completing surveys, Savings with links to good places to save on web hosting and electronics etc, and finally a page with links to all of my Song Lyrics lenses.

You can see a list of the pages that I have created along the top of the page, as well as in the Pages Index in the sidebar.  I think the list along the top looks good - a nice feature about this particular Wordpress Template.

So if you think this could be useful to you, why not create your own pages and generate more backlinks for your lenses.

Wordpress Knowledge Swap

Thursday, June 19th, 2008

Does anyone else here have an interest in learning more about Wordpress and in getting their questions answered?

I am trying to set up two sites using Wordpress, the first that my girlfriend purchased already setup (My Brilliant Gifts) and the second one I am trying to build from scratch.

There are many things I don’t properly understand about Wordpress, and their forums are not easy to navigate.  Many of the inquiries seem to go unresponded to, and when they are the respondant is often arrogant and rude.   That type of treatment would kill off Squidoo wouldn’t it!

If you would like to swap ideas and problems, let me know.  I don’t know if we can easily do it here, or via a different forum.    Right now I set up a category of Wordpress for this thread.  I don’t know if categories are common to all users or unique to each one (there’s a question for a start).
